Does a palate expander do the same thing as mewing?

[Deleted member 18515]

Title. I'm asking since it puts pressure on the top of the palate which is literally what mewing is.

With Mewing my palate went from 7 teeth smile the 14 teeth smile

If you’re young enough to get a palate expander then fucking do it, mewing won’t get you the same results

 

[Deleted member 15539]

A palate expander expans your palate

Mewing does nothing

You can still go to an ortho and check, besides unless your narrow palate is causing you breathing problems or malocclusion a wide ass palate isn’t going to do a lot for your looks

Got my palate expanded at 12 years old with a device you twist a key but palate and teeth reverted back due to not mewing (jfl never knew mewing existed back then)
